ECP Series cartridges are manufactured from a special formulation of resin-impregnated cellulose and polyester fibers.
This unique blend of materials provides a higher wet strength than regular cellulose cartridges. It also provides high flow rates and dirt holding capacity, while maintaining extremely low pressure drop.
The pleated polyester filter cartridge's media is pleated around a polypropylene core for added strength and the ends are immersed in a thermo-setting vinyl plastisol. Embedding and sealing each end of the pleat block in this fashion fuses the components together forming a unified endcap and gasket.
ECP Series cartridge endcaps feature a color-coding system for easy identification of micron ratings: Tan (1-micron), White (5-micron), Blue (20-micron), Yellow (50-micron).
ECP cartridges contain more media surface area than most competitive cartridges. The standard 10-inch ECP cartridge contains six square feet of media, where most cartridges contain only 4.5 square feet. Other available ECP cartridge sizes contain the following amount of media:
- Standard 10" Cartridge – 6 ft²
- Standard 20" Cartridge – 12 ft²
- BB 10" Cartridge – 18 ft²
- BB 20" Cartridge – 36 ft²
